AP Photo/Jose Luis Magana Texas’ abortion law is about to get a fierce challenge from Democratic lawmakers, and the battle could begin as soon as Monday. After the ‘heartbeat’ law went into effect on September 1st, the left had a collective meltdown , trotting out all their usual tropes about how women won’t be able to kill their babies. They even did their “ Handmaid’s Tale” routine, dressing up in costumes from their favorite TV show.
The Democrats became even more incensed when the Supreme Court refused to take up the case. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) posted a tweet complaining about the court’s decision: BREAKING: The Supreme Court has not responded to our emergency request to block Texas’ radical new 6-week abortion ban, SB8. The law now takes effect. Access to almost all abortion has just been cut off for millions of people. The impact will be immediate and devastating. — ACLU (@ACLU) September 1, 2021 However, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has reportedly indicated she and her merry band of House Democrats will be mounting a legislative challenge to Texas’ law, which prohibits abortions in situations when the baby’s heartbeat can be heard. KTRH reported that Pelosi indicated “the House will take action to counter a pro-life law recently passed in Texas.”
According to the report, “House members will vote on a reproductive rights bill when they reconvene in the nation’s capital this month.”
It seems the Democrats plan to once again introduce the Women’s Health Protection Act of 2021. The bill, which has been introduced each year since 2013, would place restrictions on state legislation designed to decrease abortions.
According to the Center for Reproductive Rights : The Women’s Health Protection Act of 2021 creates a new legal protection for providers to provide abortion care, and their patients to receive care, free from medically unnecessary restrictions and bans on abortion that impede access to care. This new legal protection would safeguard access to abortion in every state against restrictions like six-week and 15-week bans, mandatory delay periods, biased counseling, and medically unnecessary ultrasounds. The bill is being introduced today […]

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
